AAGH. Don't modify limits.h! You will break the compiler.
The size of a UTF-8 (8 bits) char is one byte.
You code has issues - sizeof(something) tells you how much space the compiler allocates for something, not the length of a character of a string. The answer is 1 for a single char.
mblen() gets the length of wide characters in bytes, use on wide characters.

hello,
i have a problem with strlen. I have written this:
for(y=13,z=0; cInBuf!=' ';y++)
{
cBuf=cInBuf;
z++;
}
len = strlen(cBuf);
out=len/2;
fprintf(outfile,"F%i",out);
If strlen is e.g. 22, it write F22. I want to write F2F2.
How can i do this?... (5 Replies)
